Decision Date
2022-11-10
This case is from a USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) appeal decision. Appeal cases represent a subset of petitions and may not reflect typical outcomes.

Framework Evaluation

0 of 1 criteria met
Job Qualifications (Not Met)

The Director concluded the Petitioner had not established that the Beneficiary qualified for the position at the time of filing, though this is being remanded for reconsideration.

Experience Documentation (Not Met)

The Director found the work experience letter to be fraudulent; however, the Petitioner argues the job history was true and correct.

Why This Petition Was Remanded

The AAO withdrew the Director's decision because it did not properly consider the Petitioner's arguments regarding the Beneficiary's experience and the validity of the work history. The Director also erred by dismissing a motion to reconsider solely on a procedural omission without addressing the merits of the fraud and qualification claims. The matter was remanded for a new decision addressing the substantive merits of the motion.

Furthermore, the Beneficiary's misrepresentations about her employment history were deemed willful and material, directly impacting her eligibility for the EB-3 unskilled worker classification requiring 12 months of experience.
